I can't believe you'd vote for someone you feel is corrupt over her.

Politicians have experienced staff for a reason. The question is whether she can lead (a question I have yet to determine my answer to) and not whether she can personally craft legislation.

show me a politician who isn't corrupt and I'll show you a politician who hasn't been caught yet -- nm - Beaker Mar 22, 08:03 2
- Not sure I agree, but presume I do. There are levels of corruption. - ty97 Mar 22, 08:08 1
  - agreed on varying levels. -- nm - Beaker Mar 22, 08:12

I would and it kills me. I hate that my only real option is likely him or her because neither should have the job. - Krusty Mar 22, 08:02 15
- Ignore this question if it's too personal (votes are personal) but if willing, can you tell me who you voted for in the '14 primary for Gov? -- nm* - ty97 Mar 22, 08:09 8
  - I didn't vote for governor in that primary as a protest against Cuomo. I've said, I'm not a fan. - Krusty Mar 22, 08:14 7
    - I voted for him (begrudgingly) in the general as well. I'm not a masochist :) -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 08:15 6

        That's not what I mean when I say political power. - Krusty Mar 22, 09:03
        
        It's a view difference on experience really. I'm fine with a leader who doesn't have political experience. - ty97 Mar 22, 08:21 1

- the governor isn't unilaterally making decisions though... -- nm - Andie Mar 22, 08:07 5
  - I can't rely on the person to bring in the right people as we're seeing in D.C. - Krusty Mar 22, 08:12 4
    - the person in DC is bringing in people that exactly correlate to his values. Assume she would do the same (also assume her values are 180 degrees -- (edited) - Andie Mar 22, 08:16 3
      - True. I'd love new blood, especially in this corrupt state. - Krusty Mar 22, 08:27 2
        
        I think part of the problem (a very unfortunate one) is that whatever level you start at, you become corrupted. I mean, BdB can go jump. -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 08:37 1
        
        I don't mean that everywhere (or at least not sure I do) but here, no doubt. -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 08:37
